We Want More from our S'mores

It’s summertime – time for some Fair Trade s’mores!

The Fair Trade cocoa movement was built by kids, churches, schools, towns, and individual consumers who want to be able to eat chocolate untainted by bitter working conditions. Fair Trade has revolutionized the global economy by setting minimum standards of fairness – in terms of labor, environment and community development. It has become the yardstick by which to measure and contrast products produced under unbridled free trade conditions.

Summer is a great time to get outside, and share Fair Trade at the beach, in the park, around the campfire – everywhere!

Include Fair Trade s’mores in your barbeques and campfires this summer. Or plan a We Want More from Our S’mores picnic in the park (or in the kitchen) or other event with friends, family, coworkers, or the neighborhood.

Organize a public S’mores action event or serve Fair Trade S’mores at an event that is already planned within your community, social group/club, congregation, school, or summer camp… and maximize the number of Fair Trade S’mores we make! See our step-by-step checklist.

We have even made a flyer for you to use! Email Global Exchange for a model media advisory to invite reporters to cover your event.

Show off your S’mores by holding up Fair Trade S’mores photo poster (thanks to the first graders at Manhattan New School for their "Children are More Important than Chocolate" phrase, which we used on one of the posters) or make your own
